Texas police chief says 2 officers were shot and killed Saturday while responding to domestic disturbance call.

"Our officers did not draw their weapons, did not fire, never stood a chance," Rodriguez said.

Other officers who arrived confronted the gunman near the house and ordered him to put his weapon down.He was identified as Aldon Jaramillo, 23, who had a police record for alleged assault, drunk driving, fleeing from officers and possession of marijuana, Rodriguez said. Before Garza and Chavez reached the house, they had encountered two women, one reportedly Jaramillo's wife and the other either Jaramillo's mother or mother-in-law, who told them which residence to go to, Rodriguez said."We serve regardless of the threats to us," the chief said.

U.S. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, D-Texas, said in a statement,"This is devastating news to our community. My heart breaks for these fallen officers and their families."

This is the fruit of the media’s vilification of police officers for weeks in a row. Now they are being setup and killed as a result. Hope this makes the execs at CNN MSNBC ABC CBSNews Disney happy. You fan the flames then pretend to be upset over the fire.

Our media thinks it racist to say blue lives matter

Never fall in love, girls. Never fall in love. RIP victims of domestic violence

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee calls for new stay-at-home order in TexasDemocratic Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (TX-18) tells Andrea Mitchell that Texas opened “too quickly” back in May and did so against CDC guidelines. She argued against the decision for the federal government to pull testing infrastructure out of the state while cases are surging, and called for the issuance of a new stay-at-home order after Gov. Abbott warned of that possibility, adding that “the governor can work it out by giving that authority to local jurisdictions.” Thanks GregAbbott_TX ! Blood is on your hands. Nonsense. You media are targeting Texas. Check your data, Texas is not even on top 3 list. Stop the crap and report. Remember that time Sheila was on live TV handing off a payment envelope to Blasey Ford’s lawyer during the Kavenaugh hearing? Fun times.

Stop the Medicare supplements for admitting a COVID patient to the hospital and watch the of hospitalizations go down dramatically. Nurses are saying that a lot of these patients are mild cases but admitted so the hospital can get the extra money. Open your eyes. Masks don’t prevent the Wuhanic Plague.

Texas sets new single-day record for coronavirus deaths'Anybody that thinks this is hoax, they should come spend the day with me here.' United Memorial Medical Center in Houston has been on the frontline battling the COVID-19 pandemic, as Texas and other states are showing surges in cases since reopening. VP you say flattening the curve? What a grotesque way to brainwash people. Trump says cases are up because of testing. Trump says death rates are down. Let’s stop the bullshit and look at ICU cases. That is where the story is told. Science has found ways to lower death rates but nothing has been found to stop the horrific infections leading to ICU cases
